You simply cannot beat the convenience of digital games.

Discs won't 100% go, the same way blu-ray movie discs are here to stay despite the streaming services. they can decrease in usage, but they will stay here for years to come.

Agreed, DVD has been around since the dawn of the millennium, and it hasn't been fully replaced. Some distributors/publishers bundle the DVD with a blu-ray or 4K blu-ray in order to force the costumer to buy the more expensive version (incredibly awful practice), but many others are still releasing stand alone DVDs. CDs are still kicking around (especially in Japan), although the digital and streaming has definitely pushed their relevance to the very end of the line. 

 

I doubt game discs are going to be fully replaced soon, especially with Nintendo still pushing for physical media. However, Western publishers are really pushing for that "digital only" agenda, and sadly Sony/Microsoft are on board with them.
